Boy! If I can return this, I would! First, I started to think this might be counterfeiting product, I had Franke for decades, they are the best, scratch free and super durable. My last one was 17 years old, and it still looks great! This one came in factory package but it’s not packed securely, so it’s loose inside. It was all covered in dust, so I can’t see any scratches and defaults. I always trust Franke brand, I didn’t even check. But once it’s installed, I wiped it clean and there are hundreds of scratches, and a few big ones. I wouldn’t pay $300 for this, let alone $1700! This is a JOKE! And there are also giant blotchy spots, I tried different stainless steel cleaning products but I just can’t get rid of them. They look ok once you dry the sink, but as soon as it’s wet, it looks horrible! This one is also much thinner than my previous one even though they are all 16 gauge. So the quality of this brand had gone down significantly! Also there are two bars on the sides, not sure why the stupid design, but it makes difficult to clean. This is a total waste of money! I’m a huge Franke fan, but DO NOT BUY THIS ONE! SAVE YOUR MONEY! Update after two month ( last pic with rubber bottom) : we don’t wash dishes by hand, we don’t cook using pots so we have to clean them in the sink, if we do, we placed a rubber bottom to prevent any scratches, BUT look at the bottom, it looks like years old after only TWO month since installed in March! Scratches are everywhere no matter how careful we are, and you can’t get rid of the water stains, this sink literally becomes a nightmare! How can this be Franke?! My last one lasted almost 20 years and I swear, it looked much better than this!
